Book overview
One man. Zero chance of winning. Nothing left to lose.
After the pandemic costs him his career-and his sense of purpose-Tristan Heller makes an unthinkable decision: he runs for president of the United States. Not to win, but to say what no one else will.
Backed by a scrappy crew of Silicon Valley outsiders, Tristan's long-shot campaign cuts through the noise of the 2024 election with blunt, incendiary truth. What begins as a protest quickly gains traction-drawing in voters hungry for honesty...and attention from far more dangerous forces.
As his message spreads, so does the backlash.
Online fury spills into the real world. Money, misinformation, and power close ranks. And Tristan finds himself in a fight he never intended to start-against a system that doesn't reward disruption, and the people who will do anything to silence it.
In a nation defined by division, speaking the truth can make you a target.
A sharp, provocative literary novel with the pulse of a political thriller, Tristan 4 America explores the fault lines of modern democracy-from campaign finance and disinformation to identity, power, and the high cost of dissent.
